In reality Republicans have long been at war with clean energy. They have ridiculed investments in solar and wind power bashed energy-efficiency standards attacked state moves to promote renewable energy and championed laws that would enshrine taxpayer subsidies for fossil fuels while stripping them from wind and solar.

Well when I was younger I lied all the time because once you understand the power of lying it's really like magic because you transform reality for people.

Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.

So many reality shows are scripted and create this fake drama and it's a bunch of bull. We wanted to do something real and something wholesome and something that's focused on positive family values.

Whence it follows that God is absolutely perfect since perfection is nothing but magnitude of positive reality in the strict sense setting aside the limits or bounds in things which are limited.

The days when the words 'Hollywood actor' framed Ronald Reagan like bunny fingers as an ID tag and an implied insult seem far-off and quaint: nearly everybody in politics - candidate consultant pundit and Tea Party crowd extra alike - is an actor now a shameless ham in a hoked-up reality series that never stops.

I'm looking forward to the day when America will mature to the point that we are a color-blind society. I'm not so sure that in politics that will ever be reality because politics has a way of separating us based on skin color.

Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.

Poetry is the deification of reality.

The Bible should be taught but emphatically not as reality. It is fiction myth poetry anything but reality. As such it needs to be taught because it underlies so much of our literature and our culture.

Without peace and without the overwhelming majority of people that believe in peace defending it working for it believing in it security can never really be a reality.

Our science has become terrible our research dangerous our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.

Men and women who know the brutal reality of war who know that war strips people of their very humanity must unite in a new global partnership for peace.

We coin concepts and we use them to analyse and explain nature and society. But we seem to forget midway that these concepts are our own constructs and start equating them with reality.

I'd love to go back to Europe in the '20s and '30s for the beginning of the Psychoanalytic Movement and Freud and Jung and all that was going on with discoveries in quantum physics. The whole nature of reality was changing and being challenged.

Mother Nature comes up against reality and the reality is that the system doesn't work.

Reality must take precedence over public relations for nature cannot be fooled.

For a successful technology reality must take precedence over public relations for Nature cannot be fooled.

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to the feeling for the things themselves for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures.

Ah reality TV: where opportunists delight in exposing opportunism! It's kind of like the indie music scene.

Television is where the best work for women is right now. I would love to do more movies but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
